    A lot of old, former hippies vote Republican these days, unfortunately.

        Nope, not at all. I know several former hippies (parents of friends and family) who are very GOP.

        My dad (big hippie, but barely a boomer) actually voted for Trump in 1, but now really regrets it and gets stoked about every court case against him

        Sadly a lot of online propaganda brainwashes their age group. It transformed several boomers I knew that formerly would have opposed fascism into insane Qanon Trump supporters.
